Hard to Fool [Revenge Arc]

[Coming soon: A Love Too Great to Hide] Proud, stubborn beauty heiress x prosecutor trying to win back his love. Please add it to your collection! @3@

Gu Wang was a famous playboy among the wealthy elite of Shouze City. Rumor had it he was stringing along a pretty young university student.

The beauty, Mu Yao, was the shining star of Shou University's dance department. Dazzling onstage and sweet as honey to him offstage, she was a rising star the entertainment industry had high hopes for.

He fed the desserts Mu Yao made to the dog, tossed the medal she won into the trash, and even cast his crucial vote for another girl in the finals.

Mu Yao treated him just as she always had, and he took it for granted.

Until he gave away the chubby orange cat Mu Yao had raised for six years.

Wondering if she might be crying, Gu Wang went to see her for once, of his own accord.

Instead, he heard her grit her teeth as she spoke on the phone, her usual gentle, obedient manner gone. "Dad, if I really can't get Gu Wang to fall for me, will you really leave me none of the inheritance?"

Fine!

Even if she had to go to her grandfather, she wasn't going to put up with that man for another second!

-

Mu Yao's number no longer worked, and the apartment where she lived had been completely emptied.

Just as expected, she was a girl who only knew how to throw tantrums.

That's what Gu Wang thought, yet he held the medal he'd retrieved from the trash and gazed at it, lost in memories. He even overcame his fussy allergy to cats.

But Mu Yao no longer belonged to him.

Gu Wang gazed at Mu Yao's poster on the giant screen. She was so enchanting he couldn't look away.

Beside the poster, his rival, the head of the Xu Group, was being interviewed by the media.

The elegant, aloof Xu Xiujun was now declaring his love tenderly on camera.

"I don't have an ideal type. There's only ever been one person I've loved."

"Yes, that little fairy from the dance finals. I admit I voted for her out of love and selfish motives."

The media erupted.

# Her talent speaks for itself, and love deserves to be declared aloud #

# Special thanks to my rival for ending up in the crematorium and giving me my chance to step in #

# You like all those showy roses, but I love this one wild rose #

* Sweet, pitiful darling x truly wealthy heiress; flirtatious, aloof tycoon who knows how to coax and trick people

[Reading Guide]

Coming soon: [Blame His Excessive Devotion]. Please add it to your collection, my adorable little readers! Blurb:

Four years ago, everyone in the city knew that Sheng Yin, heiress of the Sheng family, and prosecutor Shen Lianzhi were passionately in love.

The cool, self-possessed Shen Lianzhi held her close inside his coat.

They kissed, breathless. He lowered his head to breathe in the bitter-orange scent on her shoulder, and a flush spread from Sheng Yin's cheeks to her heart.

Then Sheng Yin's father's critical condition became a trending topic. Her uncles turned against her, while her cousins coldly shifted the blame.

Holding the critical-condition notice, Sheng Yin hid in a quiet, dark stairwell.

As her heart clenched so painfully she could barely breathe, she heard Shen Lianzhi approaching with someone else, calling out for her, and heard them speak.

"Sheng Yin won't count for anything in the Sheng family from now on. Do you really like her?"

"Like her?"

That was Shen Lianzhi's careless, mocking scoff.

After that, Shen Lianzhi could never find the girl who used to nestle inside his coat again.

-

Four years later, Sheng Yin had gone from being the Sheng family's heiress to its head.

She laughed and chatted effortlessly in front of the media, and stood out in her field. People who liked her and wanted to pursue her lined up around the block.

But Sheng Yin suffered from a severe psychological disorder, something few people knew.

Sleepless nights brought unbearable pain she couldn't escape. By day, she carried on as usual, trying to heal herself through sheer stubbornness.

Later, she got a new therapist. Shen Lianzhi, no longer wearing his prosecutor's uniform, stood before her.

Sheng Yin looked at him.

A sharp slap rang out.

Shen Lianzhi's face reddened, but he didn't move. His voice was hoarse. "Miss Sheng, I hope you'll let me introduce myself again."

"I'm Shen Lianzhi, a licensed psychological counselor. I practice only for you."

# Her illness is cured, but his isn't #
